    You're going to love this one! Kayla interviews Natasha Kaweski, an office assistant, a sister, a friend and an all-round good person. Natasha lives with Morquio Syndrome which means she's little. In our conversation, she opens up about her brother with the same condition as well as how her family has supported her and advocated for her in school.

  • #5: Shylo’s Story: Staying Strong
    In this episode, you’ll hear from Shylo, an Indigenous Super-Mom to boys. She has an intriguing story to tell. It starts out with an adventurous tone as we’re taken on a trip to Europe: to the Netherlands and then a cute and clever wedding-town in Scotland. Shylo’s story includes some really troubling times as well. We then learn about her middle-son’s difficult experience with cancer and how the family has been able to navigate it together. Shylo and her family show great strength and resilience and we hope this episode brings you hope and helps you come up with ways to be a good support to those in need.

  • #4: When Pregnancy Provides Purpose (Molly's Story)

    Trigger Warning: This episode goes into labour, birth and the foster system. Listener discretion is advised. 

    When Pregnancy Provides Purpose is the fourth episode of my 'Their Story' Podcast. It's a solo recording this time around and I talk about an experience I had with a client I supported several years ago. I do not use her real name or any specific details for her anonymity. It's a bit of a heartbreaking story so please listen when you're in a good headspace. 

    Takeaways: 

    • When you're seeing a lot of undesired behaviours in a person, recognize even the littlest positive behaviours they exhibit, this will motivate them and increase their self-esteem
    • Understand that humans crave connection and responsibility, when they don't get those they may seek them in ways that are unhealthy or simply not a good fit for them.
    • Sometimes we have to go through very hard things but we can learn from those experiences and help others by sharing and growing from what we learned. 
    • If you can hire a person with a disability, please do. We all deserve to work for pay and there are numerous organizations that can help with gaining employment and training of people with a disability.

      In this episode you'll meet Tara, an enthusiastic, instagram-documenting, dedicated mother of four. She is poetic, kind and has a knack for looking at the bright side of things. When Tara was in her twenties, her mother was diagnosed with hippocampal-sparing early-onset Alzheimer's disease which changed the dynamics of their relationship. Tara shares how she navigated these times and what she learned from the experiences along the way. You'll also hear about her struggles and triumphs with ADHD and how she manages caring for her kids, home, work and side-hustle despite her differences.
